Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

The producer of Infinite Worlds entered Zhu Youxing's office somewhat nervously.

Normally, this producer keeps a low profile and has devoted most of his time to the ongoing development of the Infinite World since arriving in Japan.

Although all game updates are currently free, the additional revenue generated cannot cover the costs of future development.

But Zhu Youxing has always been very patient in providing them with technical and resource support.

The creators of Infinite Worlds are very grateful for this.

I'm grateful that there's someone in this world willing to give a game a chance, a chance to be recognized again.

Recently, sales of Infinite World have started to rise rapidly.

This is different from the sales increase seen in previous major version updates.

The game isn't currently on sale, but tens of thousands of people buy it every day.

And this money is slowly accumulating, and the game's total sales have finally reached the tens of millions level, entering the world's tens of millions sales base.

All of this is truly thanks to the game god, Takeyusei.

"Please sit wherever you like. I just want to confirm a few things with you."

"Please ask me anything."

"You should know quite a bit about Mikeford's game division, right? I'd like to know about the game development capabilities of the people in this division."

Why would the boss suddenly ask this?

The creator of the Infinite World had some doubts.

Zhu Youxing didn't suddenly decide to ask this question.

During that month or so, he spent most of his time playing and learning about some of the classic games that Mikelford had played before.

There are now so many games in this world that Zhuyouxing is finding it hard to keep up, and he subconsciously ignores the ones in Mikefu.

It wasn't until he saw the announcement of Mikeford's sudden breakup that he remembered this fourth-largest game development company, which still had some status and reputation.

Since it can be called the fourth largest in the world, it must have some ability.

However, I have been intentionally or unintentionally targeting Mikelford in the past, which has kept their game products from becoming popular.

It's like the Titanfall of the past, where a high-quality game was scheduled for release around the same time as its own and its competitors' top-tier shooters.

Players obviously won't hesitate much and will definitely choose to buy and play the more well-known game.

Titanfall became cannon fodder.

Many games in Mikelford are in this state.

Now, Zhu Youxing finally remembered to play some games from Mikefu and discovered that their games are actually quite good.

Both the level design and the story gameplay are above average, and there are even some highlights.

It can only be said that the game division in Mikefu is in a terrible state, suffering greatly from its own attacks and those of other game companies, which has kept the game development team in a lukewarm state.

Chapter 1187 God of Games?

There used to be an internet social networking software company called YOO in Japan.

They had long forgotten what their boss's name was, Zhu Youxing. They had once boasted that they would devote themselves to game development and had acquired many game companies with great financial resources, seemingly poised to become a world-renowned game company.

However, the company's value was inflated, and it burst easily during the dot-com bubble, leading to its instant collapse. Coupled with the covert machinations of Japanese conglomerates, YOO, this rising star, crumbled just like that.

The game development department that Mikeford later created was somewhat similar, but there were also many differences.

Mikeford's game division follows the traditional approach of developing games in-house, rather than acquiring other game companies to expand itself.

In terms of independent creativity and intrinsic value, they are stronger than YOO's game team.

YOO was disbanded by Takeyusei, and was eventually taken over by companies such as Surui Electronics.

But this time, Takeyusei has decided to acquire the Mickford Games division.

This gaming division has great potential.

They just need a good opportunity.

A good opportunity to promote and release the game.

This game division in Mikef is somewhat like the Blizzard Entertainment of its past life.

It doesn't reach the combined level of Activision and Blizzard, but it's already comparable to Blizzard Entertainment alone.

Acquiring such a game team and then merging it into the US game division would be a great move.

"Mikefort's gaming division... their main person in charge is actually quite capable, but because of the suppression from Mikefort's headquarters, they missed many development opportunities."

The producer of Infinite Worlds answered earnestly.

In his impression, the game division in Mickford was indeed quite good.

The team members are all quite harmonious, and they are all willing to communicate and solve any development problems they encounter.

Myron Case is really something else. This genius and eccentric guy is annoying, but also a little admirable.

At least he has made some achievements in the field he focuses on.

They have already established themselves in the field of chip design and manufacturing, and have not been completely crippled by Facebook's financial strength in industries such as smartphones and tablets.

Instead, they won the favor of many people who pursue style by relying on their high-class attitude.

However, when it came to businesses that Myron Case disliked, he treated them like mere tools, showing them no mercy whatsoever.

“I’ve looked into this person in charge; he’s neither particularly good nor bad. This kind of person isn’t really suited to be a manager.”

If an acquisition is to take place, the person in charge should be removed and replaced with someone from within the organization; otherwise, problems will inevitably arise sooner or later.

"Yes, I had the same idea, but it's clear that Mikeford can't find a more suitable head of the games department."

After all, nobody wants to be treated badly.

Game professionals with management skills can easily obtain the same status and salary at other game companies.

There's absolutely no need to go to Mickford.

The current game executives are not capable enough to justify their positions.

At this moment, the producer of Infinite Worlds seemed to realize something. He looked at Zhu Youxing with some surprise and asked, "Boss, you don't mean to... acquire the game division of Mikefu, do you?"

"That's the idea. The series of games developed by this department are pretty good, and they might even have some value."

Good games should be cherished.

Seeing that the games developed by Mikefu were of good quality, Zhu Youxing suddenly felt reluctant to let them disappear without a trace.

In his past life, he also had many games that left him with regrets.

Despite its good quality, the game was critically acclaimed but commercially unsuccessful, and was ultimately abandoned by investors.

However, if you give these travel information a little patience sometimes, it might bring unexpected benefits.

However, these returns are mostly long-term and require a lot of patience.

Most investors don't have much patience.

But I have it myself.

You don't need to consider the opinions of any capital.

What impressed Zhuyouxing the most was a game that was continuously running.

It is called the Otherworldly City.

The setting is very similar to the previous World of Warcraft, and also very similar to the Dragon Treasure developed by Brown Entertainment in this world.

However, the overall development path of Dragon Treasure has been somewhat confusing recently, with several poorly received game versions being released in succession.

Fortunately, there are no competitors to the Dragon Treasure Trove right now, so it can continue to make big money safely.

This otherworldly city has the potential to surpass the Dragon Treasure.

One more chance was needed.

A cross-platform login, and then a simpler operation design logic to win over more players.

And coincidentally, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment doesn't actually have a single role-playing game that's been running continuously.

Let's just consider this as filling a gap.

As for Final Fantasy XIV, it can be developed slowly, and the two games of the same type can be developed and compete with each other.

Zhuyouxing has clearly planned many things ahead, and the only thing missing now is the acquisition of Mikeford's game division.

There must be some talented people among them.

The producer of Infinite Worlds carefully observed Takeyusei's expression for a long time before finally confirming that Takeyusei was not joking.

Then he sighed and said, "Mikeford's gaming division was really born at the wrong time. If their team had been established a few years earlier and developed to where they are now, I think they could have achieved much more fame."

Zhu Youxing said, "Or if Myron Keyes hadn't been so rigid and had allowed these games to be released on all platforms, the outcome might have been different."

"Ok?"

The producer of the Infinite Worlds' expression changed slightly.

Login to all platforms?

Yup!

It dawned on him.

To date, all games from the Mickford Games division have been released on Mickford's own platform.

However, Mikefu's own platform has too many limitations; it only has a small market and therefore has an upper limit.

However, if these games were installed on Morgan Group's operating system, or on game consoles such as Yuxing Electronics Entertainment and Surui Electronics, the results would likely be completely different.

Zhu Youxing has never been obsessed with game exclusivity; he hopes to bring games to more players.

The platform is just a channel.

If conditions permit, he is willing to release his company's games on all platforms.

"Boss, you mean you want Mikefu's game to be available on all platforms? That...that would be a real fortune."
